Overview |
|||||||||||||||||||
On almost every surface we see there is some form of coating. They enhance the appearance of the finished article and they are essential for the protection of materials. However, the coatings are made of chemicals, many of which have adverse effects on human beings and on other living things. There are mechanical and electrical hazards involved in their manufacture and application and hazards due to flammability and toxicity of components in the coatings. There is the risk of pollution, should they escape to the outside environment. The law requires that the workplace be safe to work in and that a company does not put employees or others at risk. Lately, greater emphasis has been put on environmental issues, adding to the pressures on the coatings industry. Conservation of resources and pollution control must somehow be balanced against the need for economical and effective coatings. This module aims to provide a general awareness of the law and of the safety and environmental issues in our particular industry. Hopefully, it may whet the appetite of some readers enough for them to seek formal qualifications in the subject. |

Each of the modules that CTI offer are listed above. All of the modules are distance learning. The training is brought to students by the British Coatings Federation, the sole UK trade association which has been representing manufacturers of paints, printing inks and wall-coverings for over 100 years, and the European Coatings Journal. Achieving the CTI’s International Certificate in Coatings Technology will add valuable coatings specific knowledge to a student’s skill set, and either make you more attractive to a coatings employer, or enhance their prospects for career progression. Research has shown that students who study and look to progress through personal development are more likely to gain new career prospects, are more confident and motivated, deliver higher levels of customer service and have all round better knowledge. Successful completion of CTI modules can also contribute towards membership of professional organisations such as the Oil & Colour Chemists’ Association (OCCA) and the Society of Dyers & Colourists. There is no formal entry qualifications for students and there is a natural progression within the module structure for development to more advanced subject modules. To achieve the CTI’s International Certificate in Coatings Technology, six modules need to be completed with at least four modules from the chosen level of study (2,3,4, or 5) and two can be from other levels. Students work through modules by downloading the course work material for the study portal. Students then complete a computer marked assessment, written assignments and an end exam for each module. All work is marked by one of our CTI tutors. All instructions and learning plans are contained at the beginning of the modules. Each student is given a personal web page on the CTI learning portal where they can track their progress. Technical Requirements
